Thanks for the follow up. Yeah I only guarantee the Steemdiffuser upvotes and not the Frontrunners as each account is different and many people still use their account for personal voting. I tried to provide some guidance for the users to have a greater chance of getting the votes but I generally won’t refund if someone was expecting these additional votes. I’m not sure why the delay but in almost every case it is the Steem nodes that cause issues with the bots. This was probably the case because the bot fails over to various nodes when it can’t lock onto the database. Thanks again for the support

steemdiffuser is down.
Idle at 100%.
I bid and it remains idle.

I deserve a 100% vote, but I may get less if other bidders will bid before it will be resumed.
edit: eventually I got my 100%, due to luck that no one else joined the round.
Thanks for the info. Glad you got the appropriate vote.

There was a lot of shit lately with other bots too.
In your case, I got no frontrunners votes for nearly 3 times straight despite bidding 0.1SBD in all of them.
2018-7-11 I came back to post the below and found the above saved as a draft:
When your bot gets to 100% it goes down to sleep.
I just sent a bid, and I keep waiting.
Someone else may bid and take a chunk of my vote.
It already happened in the past when your bot went down like this.
I just checked and it is idle at 100% 3 minutes after I sent a bid that requires no frontrunning.
update edit: now it is over 15 minutes and still idle at 100% despite no frontrunning deserved.
If I sent it while the bot was at less than 100%, it would have ended fine, but when it gets to 100%, it goes down.
Update #2:
Yes, this ended to be one of the bad cases, a 7.69% instead of a 100%.

Thanks for the info. You are correct that when there are no bids in a cycle the bot does a look back period for a certain number of blocks to verify it didn’t miss bids. There is potential that if a bid comes in after the bid cycle has expired that there may be a delay due to this fail safe re-scan. Thanks again.
